Petronila “Petra” Veras-Rizwan joined the Gomez and Palumbo team March of 2020 as an Associate Attorney. Petra is a first-generation Dominican American with a deep understanding and appreciation for the immigrant community. Petra learned early on to speak for those that cannot speak for themselves. Petra’s passion and drive derives from seeing her own family struggle through the immigration system. In 2004, Petra saw her own brother, who spent his entire life in the United States, deported to the Dominican Republic. Before Petra’s family could even hire an attorney to represent his brother, he had been deported without reasoning.
Petra has shown determination and resilience both in court and in her personal life. After graduating from high school, Petra became a single mother. Being a single mother did not deter Petra’s ambition and drive to accomplish her childhood dream of practicing law. Petra worked full time as a paralegal while she attended Northern Essex Community College and the University of Massachusetts Lowell. While attending the Massachusetts School Law at Andover, Petra worked full time as an administrative assistant for the Committee for Public Counsel Service Youth Advocacy Division in addition to raising her family.
Petra began practicing immigration law after her admission into the Massachusetts bar and has been a zealous advocate for immigrants before the Executive Office for Immigration Review, the Board of Immigration Appeals, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

Petra es una dominicana de primera generación con un profundo entendimiento y aprecio por la comunidad inmigrante. Petra aprendió desde el principio a hablar por aquellos que no pueden hablar por sí mismos. La pasión y el impulso de Petra se derivan de ver la lucha de su propia familia a través del sistema de inmigración.

Antes de que la familia de Petra pudiera contratar a un abogado para representar a su hermano, había sido deportado sin razonamiento.
Petra ha demostrado determinación y resistencia tanto en la corte como en su vida personal. Después de graduarse de la escuela secundaria, Petra se convirtió en madre soltera. Ser madre soltera no disuadió la ambición y el impulso de Petra para lograr el sueño de su infancia de practicar leyes. Petra trabajó a tiempo completo como asistente legal mientras asistía al Northern Essex Community College y a la Universidad de Massachusetts Lowell. Mientras asistía a Massachusetts School of Law at Andover, Petra trabajó a tiempo completo como asistente administrativa de la División de Defensa Juvenil del Comité de Servicio de Asesoramiento Público además de criar a su familia.
